Not Your Classic Beauty and the Beast

In this lovely retelling of a classic fairy tale, Briony Carmichael is as sweet as Belle but her beauty is marred by scars born from a childhood tragedy. Meanwhile, Corbin Franklin is definitely a beauty with the personality of a beast. The two meet when a friend of Briony tells her about the search for Corbin's legacy; someone he can give a full body tattoo of his own design that will survive long after the tumor kills him. Through the tattooing process, Briony and Corbin become friends then fall in love.

This was a unique retelling with captivating characters who you could empathize with. The pacing was perfect and there were enough twists to make it page turning.
